Boddington School - Maureen Simpson.
I attended the school from 1946-1951. The teacher at first was Miss Semper, who I do not remember too well. After her came Mrs. Pat Bishop, who was a lovely lady, she and her husband lived in the school house in the playground. She was influential in getting the first children from Boddington through to Grammar School, giving extra classes after school in her own home. I remember her getting us musical instruments, and taking us down the fields to study wild life and flowers. She had a dog which had too many puppies to feed, and we used to bottle feed some of the pups after school. Mrs. Bishop was a wonderful teacher, and influence on all our lives, I am sure. There were still only about 2 dozen children at the school when I left, I believe the village had approx. 100 residents in those days, as did Lower Boddington.
